We walked downstairs now fully made up.

The fear was there..but, I had a feeling we be forced to become close friends for years to come. Might as well get used to it.

Those saw me before now smiled brightly.

" I see you made up. I'm glad sweetheart. "

I let his hand go and hugged all three and thanked them for all they said. Anna climbed on Zephyr and scanned his face.

" Better? "

" Hmm.."

They needed very few words. She enjoyed his embrace and waved me over to them once close enough she kissed my cheeks.

" Better? "

My daughter is a little angel.

" Hmm.."

We pulled together and stood in an tight embrace for a while. Their presence erased the last day like a lie.

""""" Ahhh.."""""

They couldn't help themselves.

---

" Sounds like a heroic adventure Zephyr. If you need me.. "

" Anything, I can do to help little brother.."

He looked at Lucian and Alex with appreciation.

" It's still away. Karta is far away and it will take them weeks to march across the lands. Carlos will keep his ears open for the exact time and place but the Insatel scouts have just left. " - he finished his cup or tea and reminded them more important things. " We have plenty to do in the meantime."

""The wall.""

" Indeed. After Ilianna 6th birthday, we renew our efforts. I believe we can put one up in the a few week with everyone help. We reinforce it, in time."

Busy, busy, busy..

The rain will hinder them though out. But, I took some solice in the fact that once it's done we can rest until the end of November.

Maybe longer. I didn't felt like going back. But let's not put the cart in front of the horse.

They spent the rest of the afternoon with planning even though Zephyr told them to concentrate on anything else. Didn't help, in time the Emils came over and even Liz and her husband knocked.

After hearing some of the plan and agreed to not tell anyone, the combined planning begun..

Why?

The entire plan is my Zephyr alone. Although they had some good ideas for what comes after. Soon Anna was whisked away from his arms by a shy looking boy..Kelso.

The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.

" And you!? " - he looked down at the boy with distrust.

I was behind him and pinched his back.

" Zephyr!.. he is Kelso Kelsey you know his father Vincent? .. Not mention the many, many times his been over..hmm?? "

His back was immune so I went for a sensitive area, easier to grabb.

" R-right.. nice to see you again boy.."

I squeezed his ass a little harder.

" ..Kelso. Sure, why not go play hide and seek with her? .. Enjoy yourself. "

He shook those tiny hands long enough to her princess lose her patience.

" Dad!?.."

" Alright..go..yeah but, stay close to the house!! "

Seeing his face as she took his hand and run away was adorable. I kissed his profile and hugged him.

" Calm down love..she is six, don't forget not sixteen."

" I don't like the kid. Seems the calculating type.."

Yeah, there is no helping him.

After our sweetheart left and he was taken by the arms by his brothers, he looked incredibly tired considering he didn't slept last night not even the hour or two like me.

Yet he was dragged by his idiot brothers to train before dinner. I wanted to help him but, with a look he told me. I don't need too.

The Emil girls remained and we ate some sweets we brought yesterday morning.

" Manata missed his training so much he kept pestering Mr Jartok for his help. He was very enthusiastic.." - Miri opened a bottle they brought to share before dinner.

The way we consume it is..alarming. Most our own alcohol we bought back two weeks ago were gone. Almost 60 bottles, poof..gone.

" My Alex loves to help..always did." - Demelza poured some for me as she praised her husband.

I took my own glass and listened to a proud wife going on some more about her husband.

" He missed his training too, Lucian came over every night to spar and keep limber. In just a few months they both became almost inhuman. " - she down in the rocking chair and enjoyed the back and forth. " My Alex practice on a tree and he's actually winning. Kicking with his sheen over and over."

That sounds overkill to me.

Does Zephyr does it? I'll have to check his legs tonight. Finally back in our own bed.

Mother and Miranda decided to cook over here. It made since if all going to dine here. No granny..

The women was always away but, haven't seen them..actually being together. I turned to the ladies for some news.

" So, what's going on with your dad and granny? I have been out of the loop. "

Miri, Setil and Eli, told me in perfect synchronicity.

" They been spending almost everyday together.

" Dad looks like a teen in love.

" So does grandmother.

" Yet they haven't said anything to anyone.

" We think it might need a little push.

" We..they say, but I'm the only one contributed Sisi.

" We tried...but, I can't even get anywhere with Stuart.

" I have zero experience in this.."

"" Stop, crying Setil.""

After absorbing all that and had enough time to finish my glass and let Demelza pour another.

" As you can clearly hear Lylly.." - Dem rested her wine on my shoulder. " They have this perfectly under their control."

I laughed with Demelza and Liz, I even saw Petra giggling looking at their facial expressions.

" A little push huh? ..maybe we set up a nice romantic dinner. " - I leaned forward with a great idea that might just be enough. " Like your dad and granny's favourite foods cooked for them with a nice bottle of the good stuff. Maybe for someone to play some songs for them? "

Miri grabbed her sister. " That might work..We can talk to some people with instruments..."

" And we can take care if the food..I'll mean mom and Miranda."

Eli and sisters took over and all that's left it to give them my house.

" Why here? "

" Think sis! We can't do it at home or their house. It's got be a surprise. You two invite them for a joint dinner and then ..just don't show up."

I felt like I'm talking to one Anna little friend.

I don't mind, if it helped granny.

" I think you all underestimate my mother.."

My own mother took the attention of all of us. She and Miranda shared some looks of mature amusement at our attempts

" How? "

" I think they already have everything they want. Help is unnecessary.."

" So we shouldn't help?"

She turned around pointing a wooden spoon at me. " No that's fine Lylly..just don't really think 'your helping ' her..she doing fine on her own."

Maybe she is right..ain't it presumptions to believe she needs our help? But still..

" Very well..you lot still set a romantic dinner up here. Either way, we do something nice for them considering all they done for all of us. "

The girls took over planning.

Demelza turned to me and asked something she didn't have time before.

" Tell us..how was the dinner with Carlos. So far all we heard is the bad stuff."

" Where to begin.."
